Tools to Measure Packet Transmission Rate Over Time

[Vlad]

Please suggest a tool that can be used for monitoring and and analysis of Nordic's BLE packet transmission rate. 

I would like to measure packet irregularities over time.

Any help is appreciated.

Well we have the Experimental: ATT_MTU Throughput Example, the Direct Test Mode, or the nRF Sniffer. All of them can be used to monitor the throughput, but you will most likely have to adapt them to your needs.

Thanks! I am using nrf Sniffer and starting to follow the steps.

Everything was good until the item 3 on Page 8 of the nRF Sniffer User Guide v2.1:

>> 3. Click View>Interface Toolbars>nRF Sniffer to enable the Sniffer interface.

There is no Interface Toolbars menu item in Wireshark v.2.6.3.

Any suggestions?
